BILL PARKER (American 1922-2009) A PAINTING, "The Table," 1956, oil on canvas, signed with initials and dated L/C, "BP 56," titled on stretcher, "La Table," with an old Galerie Max Kaganovich, Paris, paper label on stretcher, a partial Knoedler label, and a more recent Matthews Gallery, Santa Fe and Dallas, label; 23 3/4" x 28 3/4", framed 30" x 35".

There is a one square inch repair patch on the back of the canvas corresponding to the top/center (near top edge, slightly to the left of center). On the front of the canvas there are a few small patches where some paint has flaked off (primarily in two areas of the yellow at top) as well as some thinned spots and craquelure. The painting looks as though it has been professionally conserved - perhaps a light cleaning, some touch-ups and a new varnish.
